March 2021 GI News
|
|

The vast majority of published GI values are of Western origin, notably European, Australian and North American. We know that GI values are altered by the degree of cooking and processing and this will vary from country-to-country. In this edition of GI News we focus on the GI of non-Western foods, with a particular emphasis on South-East Asia. We hope you enjoy the stories, try the recipes, and join the conversation on our facebook page here, or follow us on twiiter.

Not all Carbohydrate foods are equal
|
|
| |
The Glycemic Index (GI) is a relative ranking of carbohydrate in foods according to how they affect blood glucose levels.
Carbohydrates with a low GI value (55 or less) are more slowly digested, absorbed and metabolised and cause a lower and slower rise in blood glucose and, therefore insulin levels.
